The living is a rectory* in the diocese of London, value 2478. The church, dedicated to SS. Peter and Paul, is an ancient stone structure. It has a Norman doorway, and contains two brasses anterior to 1500, also monuments of the Lovells, the counts de Salis, and Bennet, Lord Ossulstone. In the churchyard is a yew tree measuring 20 feet in girth, and supposed to have been above 50 feet in height. There is a Baptist chapel.
